<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 4899934, member: 19463&quot;]I am not known for having EF coins but I do value coins with legible legend.&nbsp; I believe my &#039;finest&#039; Julian Caesar is the type that ended his time as Caesar after the Falling Horsemen where finished.&nbsp; This Cyzicus /SPES REI PVBLICE is what I consider &#039;not bad for these&#039;.&nbsp; I also have a decent one of these for Constantius II but his last FH coins are similarly hard to find really nice.&nbsp; When Julian became Augustus, things really got better fast!&nbsp; I have not seen a JII Augustus coin that looked nearly as bad as the average Caesar coin.&nbsp; </p><p>[ATTACH=full]1182353[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Will Fine+ but well centered do?&nbsp; Aquileia</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1182349[/ATTACH]&nbsp; This Alexandria coin has little wear and retains most of the die detail it ever had --- and that is not much!&nbsp; Look at the fully unstruck areas obverse bottom and reverse top that retain the surface of the unstruck blank.
